Lyrics

1. Frisco way, there I stray
In sweet memory, to the land so dear to me
I love you Frisco way, night and day
In my dreams for you I pine
Because I left my heart behind

CHORUS
Over the Rockies, down Frisco way
When it is sunset on old Oakland Bay
Someone promised to wait by the Golden Gate
‘Till I came to name the day
Over the Rocky mountains, down Frisco Way

2. Someday soon, when it’s June
I’ll return to you, and my dreams will all come true
I’ll find my Paradise in your eyes
In that golden land we’ll stay
To dream and love the livelong day
